About

ToggleDamageNumbers switches the visual damage indicator on and off. When enabled, floating numbers appear above creatures and structures as you deal damage to them, making it easier to see the effect of your attacks in real time.

Run the command once to turn it on, and again to turn it off. This is useful for testing weapon balance, tuning difficulty, or simply getting clear feedback during PvP or PvE combat testing.
